Learn from Delhi results: Shiv Sena to Maharashtra

Mumbai, Feb 11: Attacking its ally BJP, the Shiv Sena on Wednesday asked the people of Maharashtra to take lessons from the outcome of Delhi assembly results.

"Delhi has embraced 'Paanch Saal, (Arvind) Kejriwal'. The people of Maharashtra must learn from this. They should ponder and move ahead in that direction, that is the outcome of Delhi," the Shiv Sena said in a sharp edit in party mouthpiece 'Saamana' on Wednesday.

It said the trend started three months ago when the Narendra Modi 'wave' was halted in Maharashtra, but now the 'tsunami' has reached Delhi.

The Delhi assembly results proved that a 'tsunami' is more powerful than a 'wave' and emphatically reiterated Gandhian Anna Hazare's view that it was "a debacle for Modi", it said.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) led by Arvind Kejriwal bagged 67 of the 70 assembly segments in Delhi, while the BJP got just three seats in the assembly election results that were announced on Tuesday. The Congress failed to get even a single seat.
